Helicopter and Snowcat Skiing evolved in the 1960's. It is an extension of alpine ski-touring, using a helicopter or snowcat instead of climbing skins and muscle power as the mode of uphill transportation.

In 1978, the operators formed the BCHSSOA to serve as their collective body to define standards and operating guidelines.
